Welcome to the CPS Bulletin Board. Please use this board for communication about the purebred swine industry. Try to keep negative posts and gossip to a minimum. Thank you.
Jack, I'm sure what you say is true. Show pig sows are not as productive, and recorded litters may not be an accurate assessment of numbers born or weaned. And it most certainly is true that finding producers that pride themselves on productivity and performance is not easy. That is why I started 8 months ahead of time to look for a group of 6 boars. You can see by the post below the number or responses I have received. In fairness I have also received a couple of calls besides the response from you and Steve. So excuse me for assuming that few on this sight have any regards for productivity, the breeds, the association, or the pork industry.
